Problems with upgrading ncurses-base
I am trying to upgrade my X on a mainly hamm system. I tried to install
xbase. It complains that it needs ncurses-base (>= 1.9.9g-8.6). So off I
download ncurses-base_1.9.9g-8.8.deb and tried to install it. The
installaltion fails because:
dpkg: error processing ncurses-base_1.9.9g-8.8.deb (--install):
subprocess pre-installation script returned error exit status 1
Errors were encountered while processing:
ncurses-base_1.9.9g-8.8.deb
What gives???
